The Crying Boy

The Crying Boy wasn’t just one single painting, it was actually a mass-produced print, even have multiple versions of it exist. The original version was made by the Italian artist known as Bruno Amadio under the pseudonym “Giovanni Bragolin.” In the UK, the painting was very popular, and many people wound up hanging it in their homes.

The first claim that the painting itself was cursed was made on September 5, 1985, when an article was published by The Sun about a couple whose house ended up burning down to the ground. The Crying Baby painting was all that was left after the fire, according to The Sun. The next day, The Sun published a follow-up piece, revealing that they were receiving several other calls from people where they were having very similar issues.

One woman stated that the paintings were all that was left after see watched her house burn down just six months after purchasing the painting. People have also blamed the painting for other very unfortunate incidents. One said she had lost her three children and husband since she first purchased the painting in the year 1959 and another has said that her son’s privates ended up getting caught on a hook.

The entire thing came to a head after another house burned down that also contained the painting. The fact that this time the painting involved was only a lookalike by another artist made no difference. The Sun was offering to assist readers in getting rid of the evil paintings in their homes. In response, readers ended up turning in 2,500 Crying Boy paintings, which were all burned by The Sun in a huge bonfire.

Steve Punt, a radio presenter and comedian with the BBC, attempted to burn a surviving Crying Baby from the era, in 2010. The painting would not burn, which made Steve Punt speculate that the painting was being protected by a fire retardant. However, he refused to take the painting into his home and didn’t take any chances. He wound up leaving it on his porch.
